To @ZZ whom it may concern:

Be itknown that I, THOMAS Rawson WAR- REN, a citizen of the UnitedStates, residing at Glendale, in the county of Los Angeles and State ofCalifornia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements inAttacliments for Gas or Gasolene Stoves; and Ido declare the followingto be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such aswill enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains lo make anduse the same.

The invention relates to an attachment for a gas Aor gasolene stove.

The object ofthe invention is to Yprovide a device of this characterwhich shall be simple of construction, durable in use, and comparativelyinexpensive of production, and which may be readily attached to the topof a gas or gasolene stove, and which shall be of such construction thatthe heat from one burner, when but one burner is in use, may be diffusedor deflected under the top of the attachment, whereby plates or cookingutensils'placed upon the top of said attachment may be subjected to theheat of said burner.

With these and other objects in View the invention consists of certainnovel features of construction, combination, and arrangement of parts,which will be hereinafter more fully described, and particularly pointedout in the appended claim.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure lis a top plan View of theattachment. Fig. 2 is a cross-section on line 0o fc, andFig. 3 is alonf.

immediately above the burners, are provided with downwardly-projectingconical deflectors, so that the heat from said burners will be deiiectedin all directions, thus heating the plates and cooking utensils placedupon the top of the attachment or in the holes thereof. The lids may besupported in any suitable manner-as, for instance, by riveting to theunder side of the top of the attachment short straps or lugs 7'.

The attachment is provided, preferably, with a partition 72, whichextends across the same, so that the heat vmay be confined to one sideof the attachment when only that portion thereof is needed inl cooking,and thereby saving the heat which Would otherwise be defiected or spreadunder that portion of the attachment not in use.

In order to keep the top of the attachment perfectly straight, I providea series of spacingsleeves S, which are placed between the under side ofthe top of the attachment and the upper side of the-plate of the stove,and through these sleeves and through the top of the attachment and theplate of the stove are inserted bolts 9, the lower ends of which areprovided with nuts l0. This construction will hold the top of theattachment perfectly straight and prevent it from sagging or bulging,owing to theheat to which it is subjected. v

From the foregoingdescription, taken in connection with the accompanyingdrawings, the construction, mode of operation, and advantages of myinvention will be readily understood without requiring a more extendedexplanation.

Various changes in the form, proportion, and details of construction maybe made within the scope of the invention without departing from thespirit or sacrificing any of the advantages thereof.

Having thus described my-invention, what I claim, and desire to secureby Letters Patent, is-

The combination with a gas or gasolene stove provided withburner-openings; of a hollow, flanged, partitioned heatingattachmentdetachably connected to the upper surface portion of the stove andhaving openings arranged inline with the openings of the stove, and.equidistant-arrangedstraps connected to the body portion of theattachment' having free ends extending 'part Way across the openings ofthe attachment, and lids adapted to rest on said extended ends of saidIOO straps, and the said lids `having: downwardlyl In testimony whereofI have hereunto set projecting conical-shaped deectors to coaet my handin presence of two subscribing witwith the burners of the stove throughthe menesses.

dum of the stove-openings, and adapted to THOMAS RAWSON WARREN. 5distribute the heat to the hollow portion of Witnesses:

said attachment, substantially as and for the W. E. FARR,

purpose specied. B. F. PATTERSON.
